Japanese excel in racing simulation, aircraft/spaceshooter, RPG and arcade actions. Westerners on the other hand excel in first person shooters like Fear, FarCry, etc and Real Time strategy games

I dont think soo..
Look at Live for Speed and rFactor and GTR 2.Iff u know anyone of them.. their physics are more advanced than Japan most hot selling GT 4
Microsoft Flight Simulator is also one of the best aircraft simulator

For me,
I think japan like more arcade style gaming (Tekken, RPG... DDR.. )
western like to add realism in their games ( Company of heroes, Call of duty .... )

GTR is coming to the Xbox 360, and you could substitute GT4 with Forza (1) whose damage/physics system readily pwns Polyphony's. Say Forza 2...

You can say that again. FIFA is STILL trying to beat WE in terms of graphics n game play.

>_> West makes the best RPG. No JRPG comes CLOSE to Morrowind and Oblivion. JRPGs have better story and characters, but its gameplay is too linear and not anywhere as vast as WRPGs.

Western devs also made the best FPS, TPS, TBS, RTS, Adventure and Simulation games. The Adventure games may be dated, but still the best. I've yet to find a Japanese game that is as addictive as Civilization III.

Last but not least, western devs make the best multiplayer games. GoW, WoW, HALO, SC:CT, GH, R6:V, UT etc etc the list would go on forever.
